The small laser diode driver delivers 15 A output current up to 28 V. It meets laser compliance requirements from 3 V with a single 5 V supply, and up to 28 V with an additional 30 V power supply. Additional models are available with 2.5 A, 5 A, and 10 A output. This product family supports A & B type laser diodes. Three photodiode current ranges are available.

initial configurations can be made prior to enabling current to the laser

adjustable clipping current limit ensures that output current will never exceed the user-set limit

slow-start and delay circuitry

brownout protection

over-/under-voltage protection

Simple wiring using spring-loaded terminal strips

Easily mounted to an optics table or Wavelength heat sink

WORRY-FREE SETUP

The new circuitry in the LDxCHA allows for the laser diode current limit and the laser diode current setpoint to be fine-tuned without output current enabled to the laser. This allows users to set the specific safety and output levels required without risk of overdriving the laser during initial configuration.

DESIGNED FOR EASY INTEGRATION

The LDxCHA drivers, with their small size and easy mountability, can be attached directly to an optics table or designed into a system. Two trimpots set the current limit and current setpoint, while five spring loaded terminal blocks allow for simple wiring.

SERVICE AND SUPPORT
